Recently, Chinese media outlet Sina Entertainment met up for an interview with EXO's Lay and published the exchange on August 28. �During the interview, Lay, the remaining Chinese member of the popular SM boy group, was asked about the others who had now left: Tao, Luhan, and Kris. �

When asked about his thoughts on the members who had left the group for China, Lay said open-mindedly, "If they are happy, then I will give them my blessings. �I hope that they will do well all the way. �However, I will go my own path. �I am very stern when it comes to what I demand of myself. �I do all the things that I can do by continuously working very hard," strongly suggesting he will choose a different path from the ones his former members had chosen.

A sensitive question of whether a portion of his fans want him to return to China was thrown at him. �Continuing to answer with frankness and composure, Lay stated, "If I were to speak honestly, I don't think I understand the problem of going back or not going back. Am I not promoting in China right now? �My members also say that they miss me when they're unable to see me. �On top of that, I left when I was 17 years old and came back now, and I am still a Chinese person. �My heart is always here."
